Welcome to Eaton RESA

DELTA TWP. – Elementary school students in Eaton County have a special chance to get a look at the world of semiconductors and electric vehicles thanks to a nearly $117,000 grant from the state to the Eaton Regional Education Service Agency.

Eaton RESA's three mobile pathways labs bring career exploration options to thousands of students across the county.

Those include the Sky Lab, which is focused on aviation, featuring flight simulators and aviation engineering kits; the Fabrication Lab, dedicated to engineering manufacturing and fabrication jobs, which includes a 3D printer, drill press, and real welder; and The Garage Lab, which is focused on automotive trades, featuring tire changing stations, electrical circuit boards and a backhoe simulator, according to the district's website.

The grant will be dedicated to the fabrication and garage labs, said Sara Jobson, career pathways specialist for Eaton RESA.

Applications are now open for Michigan Talent Together. Talent Together is a statewide “grow-your-own” program that helps Michiganders earn a teaching certification or additional endorsement for free while continuing to work in schools.

Charlotte, MI — Eaton Regional Education Service Agency (RESA) has been awarded a $116,917 grant from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) and the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO) MiSTEM Network to expand hands-on STEM experiences for K-12 students across the county.

The funding, which is part of the MEDC Talent Action Team (TAT)-championed PreK-12 Strategic Investments in STEM Career Exposure initiative, will enhance Eaton RESA’s Mobile Fabrication Lab and Mobile Garage Lab, bringing advanced technology and real-world industry applications directly to local elementary and middle schools. The goal is to immerse students in Michigan’s high-demand career sectors, including electric vehicle (EV) and mobility, semiconductor manufacturing, and other STEM-focused industries.
